The Challenges Of Text Analytics From Clients In The Trenches

Text data scientists are increasingly in high demand. Certainly supply will grow, but the trends in text data accumulation and analysis will probably continue to outstrip supply for some time. If you are lucky enough to have some good text data scientists, treat them well!

What are the challenges of healthcare?

The above review of the dominant challenges facing health care suggests several key findings: 1 Poor systems design has led to errors, poor quality of care, and dissatisfaction among patients and health professionals. 2 The needs of the chronically ill are not being adequately met. Addressing those needs requires the reform of systems of care and greater coordination and collaboration among health professionals, as well as more attention to prevention and the behavioral determinants of health. 3 Technological advances in information technology and an expanded evidence base gained from research on clinical practice have the potential to transform health care, but such advances have not been adequately harnessed. 4 Patients and consumers are now increasingly informed about their health. As a result, there is a need for a new relationship of shared decision making between patients and health care providers. Providers also need to be more attentive to patient values, preferences, and cultural backgrounds. 5 Workforce issues related to shortages and effective deployment of existing professionals need to be addressed before quality of care is further compromised. 6 Health care employers and recent graduates cite gaps between the way health professionals are prepared and what they are called upon to do in practice, gaps that are attributable to many factors, including a lack of funding to revamp curricula and a limited focus on teaching in academic health centers.

Why are Americans living longer?

Poor Accommodation of Patients’ Needs. Americans are living longer, in part as a consequence of advances in medical science, technology, and health care delivery. As the population ages, there will be more patients with chronic conditions.

Is the health care system a system?

The health care system can hardly be called a system. Rather it is a dizzying array of highly decentralized sectors. Although the size of physician groups is growing, 37 percent of practicing physicians are still in solo or two-person practices (Center for Studying Health System Change, 2002).
